Nicholi and Dylan Begaye, of Moab, head to the San Juan Hospital operating room in style on October 12. Riding down the hall in the hospital’s small jeep is the hospital’s way of lowering the fear and anxiety for young patients. Recently expanded services available at the hospital include treatment for recurrent tonsillitis, ear infections and oral surgery. The young off-roaders are watched carefully by nurse Jenna LaRose.
